Default Need help picking a tire size

I have Civic SI rims on my Teg now and I was wondering whats a good size tire to go with? My friend told me to go with 205/55/15s since I'll have a drop and I do live in Alaska so roads are kinda crazy. I don't want to slam the car, just enough to cover the wheel gap and still look good. Car will be lowerd with Skunk2 coilovers if that helps. Thanks

Ohh yeah I'm on my friends account so just ignore the lude haha. I have a 2000 INtegra LS

195-50-15 or 205-50-15. I personally like the lower profile look of the 195, but the 205 is the same o.e. height, just can't go as low with them...

The stock size is 195/55-15. I recommend using that size, if the tire you want is available in it. Otherwise, get 205/50-15 and realize that the speedometer and odometer are going to read 1.6 percent high. 195/50-15 makes that error 3.3 percent and I would avoid it.
